Mashiho watched Junkyu bring in his mother's luggages, His mother hugged Ryujin as she saw her first, she turned to Mashiho, Mashiho forced a smile and his mother immediately tackled him, not letting him breathe

She leaned out holding his shoulders
"I've missed you so much Mashi" She muttered softly smiling as her eyes trailed Mashiho's face. Mashiho looked behind her and saw Junkyu smiling at them. He looked away and looked back at his mother.

"You were meant to come tomorrow" Mashiho said and Usagi tapped his shoulder
"Yeah, things got cleared up earlier so why not come back? I couldn't wait" She smiled and squeezed Mashiho's hand.

"We've missed you so much" Ryujin said smiling as she hugged Usagi from the back. Usagi arched an eyebrow smiling at Ryujin's behavior. "I really need to rest, I'm so tired" Usagi said and Ryujin nodded. She took Usagi's luggages from Junkyu and started walking upstairs with Usagi

Mashiho looked away from the stairs and looked at Junkyu. He still had his eyes on the stairs. Mashiho gulped and slowly looked away.

"You left really early today" Mashiho said and Junkyu looked at him. "What did you say? Sorry I wasn't listening" Junkyu asked smiling and glanced at the stairs. Mashiho gritted teeth and asked again

"I didn't see you when I woke up today, you left really early, you didn't even leave a note" Junkyu's muttered an 'oh'
"Usagi arrived early and I was too excited to go meet her, I didn't want to disturb your sleep" He finished smiling

Mashiho didn't return his smile, Junkyu's smile went down when he saw Mashiho wasn't smiling back at him. Mashiho turned to leave but Junkyu held his arm

"Hey what's wrong?" Junkyu whispered.

Mashiho sighed. He was really angry. He didn't even know how to start

"Do you even know how worried I was? I couldn't even call you because you didn't give me your number, Each second I would look out the window to see if you're back, I was not at ease..not even for a minute"

Junkyu slowly detached his hand from Mashiho's arm.

"I...I didn't think it would be much of a big deal to you" Junkyu said and Mashiho huffed as he brushed his hair back. He removed his eyes from Junkyu and tried to walk out but Junkyu stopped him

Junkyu softly cupped his cheeks as he lightly spoke "I'm sorry okay? I won't do it next time...I promise" Mashiho's face softened. He sighed and nodded making Junkyu smile wide.

"Want me to make something for you?" Junkyu asked still cupping Mashiho's cheeks. Mashiho nodded "Mm I'm hungry"
Junkyu smiled at the slight pout on Mashiho's face

"Come on then" Junkyu intertwined his hand with Mashiho's as he led him into the kitchen

– –

"Mhm, It was so beautiful there" Usagi said and Mashiho rolled his eyes. Usagi was talking about her experience in Paris and Mashiho was getting really bored.

Junkyu walked down and sat beside Usagi. He took her hand in his and pecked her temple. Usagi rested on Junkyu's shoulder as she talked. Mashiho poked his tongue in his cheek not pleased as he watched these unfold

"So when's the wedding huh?" Ryujin asked wiggling her eyebrows. Usagi laughed softly. "We haven't really fixed a date but it's surely next year January" She said and pecked Junkyu.

"Mashi? You've been really quiet, is something wrong honey?" Usagi said and Mashiho sighed in frustration.

"I'm always quiet and please...stop acting" Mashiho said and walked out. There was a silence between Junkyu, Usagi and Ryujin after Mashiho left.
